Android (and some other mobile platforms, plus web) do not have a concept of "exiting" the app. User just goes to another app's activity and the system (eventually) clears the process from memory.

When your Activity is leaved it gets notified via lifecycle callbacks. There you can do cleanup if necessary.

Is quitting an application frowned upon?
